Home airports

Hopped off (and on) the plane at LAX.

My travel style

You'll find me in a boutique hotel with excellent service tucked into a quiet nook of a city, but still with access to all the best restaurants and activities. As a foodie, the highlight of my trips are the meals. Living abroad helped me realize travel is meant to be fun, life changing and inspirational – helping people get that experience (and feel comfortable and guided) is really what drives my passion.
